Abstract

This paper is concerned with a group psychotherapy approach which was applied to a group of female patients on one of the psychiatric wards. The patients selected for group therapy numbered 20-25, they ranged in age from 18 to about 50 and represented a variety of types of illness. The main criterion for selection for participation in the group was the requirement that the patient be in contact (not actively hallucinating) and have a capacity for verbalization. Manic and severely paranoid patients were excluded.
